How strict are the RSS import rules?
I'd like to set up a Tumblr that grabs my Twitter feeds, and the feeds of everybody I follow, so that people can see the whole conversation.
I have figured out technically how to do this (by putting my user name and password into the Twitter feed URL), but one of the Terms and Conditions is that I must important content I created myself. If all I'm importing is the text of my friend's tweets, will this be OK or am I breaking the rules?
And if I am breaking the rules, will only this new Tumblr be shut down, or all of the ones I have created?
Thanks

Inappropriate?Hello! If you have your friends' permission to import their Twitter feeds, that's fine. But, please don't import their feeds without first getting their permission. Thanks for asking!

Inappropriate?Oh that's a pity. It'd be a fiddle to get permission from all of them. Thanks for the info Marc. (And the incredibly prompt response.)
I’m sad but understanding
